Back when I started blogging nearly a year ago, I never would have imagined I'd meet so many wonderful people and make such lovely friends. It's certainly been the icing on the cake of life for me. Through my blog travels I've read so many amazing stories, shared in others experiences of joys and sorrows and found the most incredibly talented artists I've ever met. Today I'd like to share with

Always time for...

There's always time for a Treasury even during a week of chaotic work. I had the pleasure of creating this one with a holiday theme featuring some of my favs. I have to thank my son for coming up with the name, sometimes it's a real effort for me to think of something on the spur so thanks Josh!

Profile Information

About Me:: Hi! My name is Sharon and my husband Damein & I are the artisans behind Mana Moon Studios. The treasures listed here are my creations and I love working with wire & artist's focal beads as well as mixing fibers with various materials to create unique wearable treasures. My husband is a fantastic chain maille artisan who simply picked up two pair of pliers and some jump rings one day and created magic (I said he was channeling an ancient craftsman).

A little blurb about our business:
As part of the Indie culture, Mana Moon Studios, is home to a vast array of handmade jewelry and wearable treasures including our unique Wire Wrapped Bracelets and Key Holders as well as our Fiberwear Creations.

A little blurb about me:
I've enjoyed a life filled with creativity both professionally & personally and have been creating wearable treasures for over 30 years along with having had the opportunity of apprenticing with a master jeweler for 2 years. I love working with the various mediums involved in jewelry making and expressing myself through this creative venue.
